Dear Friends, It’s that time of year again! In honor of Los Angeles Frieze Week, El Nido by VC Projects is partnering with Western Avenue Collective with a day of “Open Studios” cheeky titled: Anti-Frieze. The studios within the courtyard are privately run, but on February 22nd, they will be open to the public for a unique sharing of art and conversation. El Nido will be featuring Steven Dayvid McKellar’s solo exhibition of mixed media paintings, “You and Me and Ego.” From 4 to 5 pm we will be honoring our special guest, John Nathan LeGrand, Intergrated Coach, with a fascinating conversation about the “Intuitive Guide to the Creative Self.” You won’t want to miss this talk - a more complete description of this talk is located further down this newsletter.
